E-Comm 911
E-Comm is the largest 9-1-1 call centre in B.C., providing dispatch services for more than 70 police and fire departments and owns and operates the regional emergency radio communications system.
The journey to reconciliation begins with acknowledging the truth and educating ourselves.
Today our flags are lowered to half-staff as we remember the Indigenous children who were taken from their families and reflect on the tragic and painful history of residential schools and the intergenerational trauma impacting the Indigenous peoples in Canada.
At E-Comm 9-1-1, we recognize that we still have much work and learning to do. We are committed to doing our part to advance reconciliation by deepening our knowledge and understanding of Canada’s colonial history and the history and legacy of the residential school system as an integral part of the reconciliation process.
This design was created by local Indigenous artist Bear Horne of the Tsawout Nation and gifted to Victoria Orange Shirt Day to be used in their work of raising awareness about Canadian Residential Schools.
Horne’s design features a bear to help us follow the right path, an eagle to help us have a vision of a bright future, a hummingbird to keep our mind, body and spirit healthy, and a flower to feed the connection of all these elements.
